Answers:
When you feel one coming on, try drinking cold water as it will be a shock to your system!. And when you do deep breathing, inhale through your nose and hold for a few seconds before exhaling through the mouth!. This activates your parasympathetic nervous system and induces feelings of calm!. Also try lavendar oil, which is good for relaxation!.
